[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Fcps has 24 traditional high schools.

FCPS has 26 middle schools.

How many split feeder middle schools are there?

Every FCPS high school should have one dedicated middle school that os NOT a split feeder.

Only 2 middle schools should be split feeders; one after the new high school opens.

It should not be difficult to fix this.

Why didn't the boundary review focus on eliminating split feeders, particularly at the middle school level?[/quote]

People zoned to Madison would rather keep split feeders than end up at Marshall. [/quote]

Not for all of us. My kids went to Wolftrap, Kilmer and then Madison. It was fine but the split feeders sucked. If I could have done it over again, I would have tried to pupil place them to Marshall.  All of their close friends went there from elementary and middle school.  Madison was fine and our youngest is still there.  All of them made friends there.  But I think they would have been happier at Marshall.  [/quote]

Most of Wolftrap goes to Madison now.  In any event, it's people in the Town of Vienna in particular who've pushed back at any effort to make Westbriar a 100% feeder to Kilmer and then Marshall.  If there was any proposal for all of Wolftrap to go to Marshall, they'd push back at that, too.  [/quote]

That’s good. I’m glad they fixed it for the younger kids.  You can tell I’m not following the boundary updates since we are almost done with FCPS.  Marshall and Madison are both great schools.  I was just commenting to the poster who said that people had something against Marshall. Maybe some do. Most of us in Vienna don’t and think it’s a good school.  [/quote]Then let ya selves move there![/quote]
